What is disaster management?

The United Nations defines a disaster as a serious disruption of the functioning of a

community or a society. Disasters involve widespread human, material, economic or
environmental impacts, which exceed the ability of the affected community or society to cope
using its own resources.

The Red Cross and Red Crescent societies define disaster management as the organisation
and management of resources and responsibilities for dealing with all humanitarian aspects of
emergencies, in particular preparedness, response and recovery in order to lessen the impact
of disasters.

Types of disasters

There is no country that is immune from disaster, though vulnerability to disaster varies.
There are four main types of disaster.

Natural disasters: including floods, hurricanes, earthquakes and volcano eruptions that have
immediate impacts on human health and secondary impacts causing further death and
suffering from (for example) floods, landslides, fires, tsunamis.
Environmental emergencies: including technological or industrial accidents, usually involving
the production, use or transportation of hazardous material, and occur where these
materials are produced, used or transported, and forest fires caused by humans.
Complex emergencies: involving a break-down of authority, looting and attacks on strategic
installations, including conflict situations and war.
Pandemic emergencies: involving a sudden onset of contagious disease that affects health,
disrupts services and businesses, brings economic and social costs.

Any disaster can interrupt essential services, such as health care, electricity, water,
sewage/garbage removal, transportation and communications. The interruption can seriously
affect the health, social and economic networks of local communities and countries. Disasters
have a major and long-lasting impact on people long after the immediate effect has been
mitigated. Poorly planned relief activities can have a significant negative impact not only on
the disaster victims but also on donors and relief agencies. So it is important that physical
therapists join established programmes rather than attempting individual efforts.

Local, regional, national and international organisations are all involved in mounting a
humanitarian response to disasters. Each will have a prepared disaster management plan.
These plans cover prevention, preparedness, relief and recovery.

Disaster prevention

These are activities designed to provide permanent protection from disasters. Not all
disasters, particularly natural disasters, can be prevented, but the risk of loss of life and injury
can be mitigated with good evacuation plans, environmental planning and design standards.
In January 2005, 168 Governments adopted a 10-year global plan for natural disaster risk
reduction called the Hyogo Framework. It offers guiding principles, priorities for action, and
practical means for achieving disaster resilience for vulnerable communities.

Disaster preparedness

These activities are designed to minimise loss of life and damage for example by removing
people and property from a threatened location and by facilitating timely and effective rescue,
relief and rehabilitation. Preparedness is the main way of reducing the impact of disasters.
Community-based preparedness and management should be a high priority in physical
therapy practice management.

Disaster relief

This is a coordinated multi-agency response to reduce the impact of a disaster and its long-
term results. Relief activities include rescue, relocation, providing food and water, preventing
disease and disability, repairing vital services such as telecommunications and transport,
providing temporary shelter and emergency health care.

Disaster recovery

Once emergency needs have been met and the initial crisis is over, the people affected and
the communities that support them are still vulnerable. Recovery activities include rebuilding
infrastructure, health care and rehabilitation. These should blend with development activities,
such as building human resources for health and developing policies and practices to avoid
similar situations in future.

Disaster management is linked with sustainable development, particularly in relation to

vulnerable people such as those with disabilities, elderly people, children and other
marginalised groups. Health Volunteers Overseas publications address some of the common
misunderstandings about disaster management.

The National Disaster Response Force (NDRF) is a disaster response agency under
National Disaster Management Authority (NDMA) created by the Ministry of Home Affairs,
Government of India. It was established in 2009 in Delhi, for disaster management and
specialised response to natural and man-made disasters. Functioning at state and central-level
under the National Disaster Management Authority (NDMA) based in Delhi, it consists of ten
battalions of Central Armed Police Forces, including three each of the BSF, CRPF, and two
each of the CISF and ITBP.[1]

History

The Disaster Management Act, 2005 has made the statutory provision for the constitution of
the Force.[2][3] Though the units of this Force were nominated in 2003, it is only after the
establishment of NDMA that their training and equipping were vigorously pursued. In lieu
with the Section 44 (i) of the Act that states NDRF a specialist force, the force is gradually
emerging as the most visible and vibrant multi-disciplinary, multi-skilled, high-tech force of
the NDMA capable of dealing with all types of natural and man-made disasters.
At present, National Disaster Response Force consists of ten battalions, two each from the
BSF, CRPF, twoCISF and ITBP.[1] Each battalion will provide 18 self-contained specialist
search and rescue teams of 45 personnel each including engineers, technicians, electricians,
dog squads and medical/paramedics. The total strength of each battalion is approximately
1,149.

All the ten battalions are being equipped and trained to combat all natural disasters including
four battalions in combating radiological, nuclear, biological and chemical disasters.

Two more battalions have been sanctioned and will come from SSB

Deployment

Location of NDRF Bns

These NDRF battalions are located at nine different locations in the country based on the
vulnerability profile to cut down the response time for their deployment. During the
preparedness period/in a threatening disaster situation, proactive deployment of these forces
will be carried out by the NDMA in consultation with state authorities. The present location
of NDRF Bns are as follows:
Functional parameters

The vision of the National Disaster Management Authority is to build a safer and disaster
resilient India by developing a holistic, proactive, multi-disaster and technology driven
strategy for Disaster Management. This has to be achieved through a culture of prevention,
mitigation and preparedness to generate a prompt and efficient response at the time of
disasters. This national vision inter alia, aims at inculcating a culture of preparedness among
all stakeholders.[4]

NDRF has been proved its importance in achieving this vision by highly skilled rescue and
relief operations, regular and intensive training and re-training, familiarisation exercises
within the area of responsibility of respective NDRF Bns, carrying out mock drills and joint
exercises with the various stakeholders.

During the Kosi beach in Bihar in August 2008, which was declared a national calamity by
Prime MinisterShriManmohan Singh,[5][6][7][8] NDRF personnel actively engaged themselves
in rescue operations and relief duties in districts Supaul, Madhepura, Araria and Purnia.
About 780 NDRF personnel trained in flood rescue operations along with 153 high capacity
inflatable boats and other rescue equipment were deployed in the flood affected areas. The
swift and highly skilled operations of NDRF saved more than 100,000 people trapped in
swirling waters of river Kosi.[9] NDRF personnel distributed relief supplies including
drinking water to the stranded flood victims.[10] Medical camps were also established to
provide medical care to the flood affected people. Impressed with prompt and efficient
response of NDRF, Chief Minister of BiharShriNitish Kumar approached prime minister
ShriManmohan Singh for a NDRF Bn to be stationed in Bihar[11] and offered 65 acres
(260,000 m2) of land at Bihta near Patna.
NDRF commendable rescue operations were no less appreciated during the 2008 floods in
Orissa, Maharashtra, Kerala and Assam.

On 25 May 2009 Cyclone Aila hit West Bengal coast with a fury unprecedented in recent
history. It took at least 94 lives, seven of them in Kolkata, and affected over 40 lakh people.
More than six lakh houses were destroyed completely or damaged partially.[12] NDRF
promptly responded to the devastating situation and 600 personnel of NDRF with 84 boats
and other rescue equipments started rescue and relief operations at cyclone affected areas of
district 24 Pargana North and South of West Bengal.[13][14][15] During the operations NDRF
personnel rescued around 2,000 trapped persons and distributed 50 truckloads of relief
materials to the affected people.

On 1 Oct 2009 in the wake of worsening flood situations in the States of Andhra Pradesh and
Karnataka, the State Government of both the states sent their requests for deployment of
National Disaster Response Force (NDRF) for rescue and relief operations. NDMA mobilised
963 flood rescue trained personnel (including some deep divers) and 308 inflatable motorised
boats from 05 NDRF Bns located at Arakkonam (Chennai), Pune, Mundali (Orissa), Greater
Noida and Bhatinda. and airlifted on 23 Oct 2009 in Air Force IL-76 and AN-32 aircraft
from nearest Air Force bases and Civil Airports. The rescue personnel deployed in 04
districts of Andhra Pradesh (Kurnool, Vijayawada, Mehboob Nagar and Nandhiyal) and 04
districts of Karnataka (Bagalkote, Raichur, Gadag and Bijapur) and immediately started
rescue and relief operations in the flood affected districts of both the states.[16][17][18]

NDRF rescued tens of thousands persons marooned in the floods at these two States and
distributed over 40 quintals of food and drinking water. The medical teams of NDRF at these
districts administering medical first response and distributing medicines to the flood victims.

On 26 Jan 2010 a five-storied under-construction residential building collapsed at Bellary,

Karnataka with about 50 people trapped under the huge debris. 3 rescue teams (102
personnel) of NDRF BnPune promptly airlifted to Bellary and NDRF personnel carried out
round the clock operation with the help of search & rescue equipments and dogs for 09
days.In the meticulously carried out operation under huge debris the NDRF managed to
rescue 20 live persons. The last person was rescued on the 9th day. NDRF also retrieved 27
dead bodies trapped under debris.[19][20][21][22]

In future, the key to efficient disaster response will depend primarily on effectiveness of
training and re-training of Specialised Disaster Response Forces. With this vision, a detailed
Training Regime for Disaster Response has been prepared by NDMA/NDRF identifying
the specific disaster response training courses and devising a unified, structured and uniform
course module as well as syllabus for these training courses. The proposition behind a
unified, structured, uniform course module and syllabus is that first the entire NDRF
battalions will successfully attain these courses and subsequently the State Disaster Response
Forces (SDRF) and other stakeholders will be trained on the same lines. The need of
uniformly structured course module emerged from the fact that if all the NDRF battalions and
other first responders undergo the same training exercise, the coordination between
different stakeholders would be expedient and well planned at the time of any major disaster
where different NDRF battalions, SDRF battalions and other stakeholders will be working
together in close coordination with each other.

After its constitution in 2005, NDRF with its swift and highly skilled rescue operations has
emerged as most visible and vibrant force of the NDMA. NDRF personnel are invariably
trained in courses like Flood Rescue, Collapsed Structure Search and Rescue, Medical First
Responders, Rope Rescue, Nuclear, Biological and Chemical Emergencies; Dignified
Disposal of Dead Bodies etc. NDRF personnel are trained in prestigious institutes like NISA,
DRDO, BARC, CME, Army, Navy and Air Force as well in foreign countries like USA,
Singapore, China, Finland, Korea, Switzerland etc.

Training of NDRF

While the NDRF is being trained, re-trained and equipped as a specialist force for level three
disasters, it is equally important to ensure capacity building of state police personnel who are
invariably the first responders in any natural or man-made disasters. To ensure this, a two-
pronged strategy is being suggested to the states: firstly, to train state police personnel in the
basics of disaster management and secondly, to train at least one battalion equivalent out of
their state armed police units as State Disaster Response Force (SDRF) on lines of the NDRF.
In addition to police personnel, the SDRFs may be constituted from existing resources of the
Fire Services, Home Guards and Civil Defence. NDRF Bns and their training institutions will
assist the States/UTs in this effort. The State/ UTs will also be encouraged to set up DM
training facilities in their respective Police Training Colleges and include this subject in their
basic and in-service courses.

Till the time, 205 police personnel from 21 states of the country have been trained.

Training being one of the most important attributes for an efficient force, Government of
India has recognised the recommendations of the NDMA for setting up an apex National
Institute of Excellence for Search and Rescue at a central place like Nagpur to provide
training of trainers and to meet other national and international commitments. Also a network
of ten outreach centres at the respective NDRF Bns locations are proposed to be set up.

Awareness and preparednesscampaigns are key components of proactive approach on

Disaster Management. In case of any disaster, the local population is the actual first
responder. It may take some time for the district/ state administration to mobilise rescue
teams, including police, fire personnel etc. If the local people is properly sensitised about the
precautions and preventive actions to be taken in case of any calamity, the loss of life and
damage to property can be drastically reduced. Thus, one of the most important tasks of
NDRF is to continuously engage themselves in the Community Capacity Building and Public
Awareness programmes in a big way which includes training of people (the first responders)
and concerned government officials at different levels in the areas with high vulnerability.
Along with Community Capacity Building and Public Awareness exercises NDRF is also
actively engaged in area familiarisation exercises. Such exercises provide first-hand
knowledge about the topography, access route to various disaster prone areas, availability of
local infrastructure/ logistics which can be used in disaster response operations.

in 14 high vulnerable districts (Araria, Saharsa, Kishanganj, Madhepura, Supaul, Khagaria,
Begusarai, Darbhanga, Madhubani, Munger, Patna, Muzaffarpur, Sitamarhi and Samastipur)
of Bihar. In this project, 2,200 volunteers and State Disaster Management Authority (SDMA)
officials were trained by the NDRF. This capacity building programme was continued next
year also.

In 2008, NDRF embarked in a big way upon the community capacity building and public
awareness programmes in Bihar which included training of vulnerable people and officials in
various districts. NDRF carried out 3-day Flood Preparedness training programme for a
month in 15 vulnerable districts (Bhagalpur, East Champaran, Vaishali, Munger,
Muzaffarpur, Saharsa, Madhepura, Khagaria, Begusarai, Darbhanga, Madhubani, Patna,
Sitamarhi, Samastipur and Sheohar) of Bihar before monsoon season at district/Block levels.
More than 15,000 village volunteers, local people, students, State Police, and also Central and
State Govt. personnel participated in the programme.

NDRF also conducts regular mock exercises on various disasters like cyclone, flood,
earthquake, NBC emergencies, mass causality management etc. Participation in such
exercises on the one hand improve the professionalism of NDRF personnel to tackle the real
emergency situations and on the other provides an opportunity to interact with various State
Government officials and to develop cordial relations with them that can be of great help
during response to actual disasters.

Till 31 March 2010 NDRF has trained more than 6.5 lacs community volunteers throughout
the country.
